  "What are you going to do, lob a stone at me from 300m away?" shouted the man on the parapet, moments before impact.

    I hate this meme. Someone says "think about what you are doing prideful fool". And the other person still decides to use lethal force. That is diabolical, not funny.

  Hope he died quickly, instead of having to deal with the pain of multiple bones crushing

  Interesting find! I wonder if the massive damage could also be explained by the falling wall (documented in the article).

    Indeed, I am sure there are other mechanisms that could cause similar trauma.
